Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method for slip compensation in a squirrel cage induction motor when the motor is fed by an inverter without feedback at a supply frequency less than 20% of the rated supply frequency of the motor after the motor has first been fed at a frequency more than 50% of the rated frequency for a period of time at least equal to a mechanical time constant of a combination formed by the motor and a load device, wherein a term proportional to the torque of the motor is determined and added to the set value of the rotation speed to effect slip compensation.
  • Techniques of the type described above are used for the compensation of the slip of squirrel cage induction motors particularly in lifts, conveyors, cranes and trains, in which the motor is normally driven at a greater frequency typically more than 50% of the rated frequency of the motor, but which are driven at a low drift speed before the motor is switched off, whereby the supply frequency of the motor is typically less than 20% of the rated frequency of the motor. In this way, stopping can be performed smoothly.
  • the system does not comprise position feedback or speed feedback e.g. from a tachometer measuring the rotation speed of the motor, speed variation caused by the slip of the motor is to be compensated for electrically.
  • Such a system can be e.g. a positioning drive without feedback information from the motor shaft, where a short distance is driven at a low approach speed which is to be load-independent before positioning in order to improve accuracy.
  • n the set value of the rotation speed (r/min)
  • k a constant dependent on the degree of magnetization of the machine
  • Equation (1) The term kT in Equation (1) is obtained by an estimated air-gap power Pa obtained by a power measured from an intermediate circuit between a rectifier and an inverter as follows:
  • Ps the dissipation power of the stator of the motor.
  • the torque of the motor in turn is obtained from the air-gap power Pa as follows:
  • Ws the angular frequency of the stator.
  • the accuracy of the above-described method decreases with decreasing frequency, as the proportion of the dissipation powers Pinv and Ps in the measured power of the intermediate circuit increases with decreasing frequency when the load remains constant.
  • the frequency is 0, the entire power of the intermediate circuit is lost through losses as the air-gap power Pa of the machine is 0.
  • changes in the degree of magnetization caused by the voltage loss of the stator resistance alter the value of the constant k, thus deteriorating the accuracy of the term kT the more the lower the frequency is.
  • the inaccuracy caused by the above-described method in slip calculation with decreasing frequency results in variation in the approach speed with different loads.
  • the object of the method according to the invention is to provide a solution in which such approach speed variation is reduced significantly. This is achieved by a method according to the invention which is characterized in that the value of the compensation term is stored in a memory before transition from the frequency more than 50% of the rated frequency to a frequency less than 50% of the rated frequency, and the stored compensation term is used as such for slip compensation when the supply frequency of the motor is less than 20% of the rated frequency.
  • the accuracy of slip compensation is improved in such a way that the compensation value to be added to the rotation speed of the motor when driving at a low approach frequency (less than 20% of the rated frequency of the motor) is calculated at a higher constant frequency (more than 50% of the rated frequency of the motor), whereby the effect of dissipation powers on the calculation accuracy of the compensation value is insignificant.
  • the method according to the invention is based on the realization that in drives of the type described above the load is not able to change until the motor has been switched off completely. This is because one cannot leave a lift or a train before it has stopped, i.e., the load of the motor remains constant throughout the period of time when the motor is first driven at a higher rated frequency and then a lower drift speed is applied before stopping.
  • FIG. 1 shows a speed profile for positioning drive to which the method according to the invention is applicable.
  • FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a device suitable for realizing the method according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 shows a speed profile for positioning drive to which the method according to the invention can be applied.
  • the motor is started at a time 0, and its rotation speed is adjusted such that it is operated at a frequency at least about 50% of the rated frequency of the motor up to a time t 1 .
  • the time interval from 0 to t 1 should be at least equal to a mechanical time constant of a combination formed by the motor and a load device.
  • the motor is commanded to a frequency no more than 20% of the rated frequency of the motor.
  • the motor is driven at such a low speed up to a time t 2 , after which the motor is switched off.
  • a term kT to be added to the set value of the rotation speed of the motor is calculated at t 1 by Equations (1) to (3) presented above.
  • the term kT is used as such for slip compensation up to t 2 . This value stored in a memory is thus no more changed during the rest of the positioning drive.
  • FIG. 2 shows a block diagram illustrating generally a device suitable for realizing the method according to the invention.
  • a power obtained from a three-phase network is rectified e.g. by a diode bridge 3, whereafter the rectified voltage is filtered in a capacitor 4 and applied to an inverter 1, which in turn feeds a motor 2.
  • the inverter is controlled by a pulse-width modulator 5, which applies an electric stator frequency fs to the inverter as a frequency command. If the slip of the motor is not to be compensated for, this frequency is calculated merely from the set value of the rotation speed n of the motor.
  • the arrangement further comprises a slip compensation circuit 6, which measures a DC power Pdc from an intermediate circuit between the rectifier 3 and the inverter 1.
  • the slip calculation circuit 6 then calculates the torque T of the motor on the basis of the DC power, and multiplies it with an appropriate constant k. This gives a compensation term kT, which is added to the set value of the rotation speed n in an adder 7 so as to obtain a slip-compensated stator frequency fs in accordance with Equation 1.
  • the slip calculation circuit 6 shown in FIG. 2 stores, in the positioning drive illustrated in FIG.
  • the term kT in the memory at t 1 and applies only this value to the adder 7 when the value of the set rotation speed n requires that the motor be fed at a frequency less than 20% of the rated frequency of the motor. Accordingly, the compensation accuracy can be improved by calculating the compensation value kT used during drive at a low approach frequency at a high constant frequency, whereby the effect of dissipation powers on the calculation accuracy of the value is insignificant.
